Case Studies: Corporate Tax Filing in Richmond Hill
Condo Developer, Richmond Hill Centre (HST Self-Supply + NHR)
A Richmond Hill pre-construction condo development corporation had miscalculated the HST self-supply obligation on 12 newly completed rental units, overpaying HST by $126,000 because the NHR was not applied at the unit level. The previous accountant had treated all 12 units as a single property instead of calculating the NHR per-unit (up to $30,000 combined federal and Ontario rebate per qualifying unit). We recalculated the self-supply on a per-unit basis and filed amended GST/HST returns. Richmond Hill CPA Services →
Dental Professional Corp, Yonge St (Holdco + Management Fee Defence)
A dentist operating a professional corporation on Yonge St in Richmond Hill had accumulated $520,000 in retained earnings with no holdco structure. CRA was reviewing a $96,000 annual management fee paid to a family-owned corporation with no written services agreement. We established the holdco, prepared retroactive management services agreements with FMV documentation and resolved the CRA review.
Fintech Company, Highway 7 Corridor (SR&ED Credit Recovery)
A fintech company on Highway 7 developing proprietary payment processing and fraud detection algorithms had never claimed SR&ED in its first two years. The founder believed only lab research qualified. Our review identified $620,000 in eligible expenditures including software developer salaries, algorithm design for real-time transaction scoring, ML model training costs and cloud computing expenses. We filed T661 forms for both years. Corporate Tax Filing →
Property Flip Corp, York Region (Capital Gains Defence)
A Richmond Hill corporation that had purchased and renovated three residential properties over two years reported all dispositions as capital gains. CRA reclassified two of the three as business income (100% inclusion vs. 50% then 66.67%), resulting in a $74,000 reassessment. Our review demonstrated the intent to hold as rentals, documented the rental income history and showed the renovations were capital improvements, not inventory preparation. We filed a Notice of Objection.
Common CRA Compliance Issues for Richmond Hill Corporations
| Issue | Who Is Affected | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| HST self-supply errors | Condo developers, builders, property management companies | NHR calculated per-project instead of per-unit. Most expensive HST error for Richmond Hill developers. Six-figure consequences common. |
| Capital gains vs business income | Property flips, assignment sales, development corporations | CRA reclassifies capital gains as business income (100% inclusion). Intent, holding period and frequency all determine classification. |
| Management fee documentation | Professional corporations, holdco structures, family entities | CRA requires written agreements, FMV documentation and evidence services rendered. Undocumented management fees reversed in full on audit. |
| SBD association (Schedule 9) | Multi-entity structures, professional corp + holdco + real estate corps | Associated corporations must share $500,000 SBD limit. Each claiming full $500,000 independently reversed with penalties. |
| SR&ED not claimed | Highway 7 SaaS, fintech, cybersecurity, AI and engineering companies | 35% refundable credit unclaimed. Custom software, algorithm design, ML model training and engineering prototyping all qualify. |
| Employee vs contractor in IT | IT consulting, software development, contract programming | CRA reclassifies IT contractors as employees. Unremitted CPP, EI and source deductions with compounding penalties backdated. |
| SBD grind from passive income | Corporations with $50,000+ passive investment income | Loss of $500,000 SBD limit. Rate jumps from 12.2% to 26.5%. Common for established Richmond Hill businesses with investment portfolios. |
Self-Filed T2 vs. CPA-Filed T2
| Feature | Self-Filed T2 | CPA-Filed T2 (Gondaliya CPA) |
